primary stress; primary contrainte
Stress (normal or tangential) resulting from mechanical loading and therefore unable to limit itself.
secondary stress; contrainte secondaire
Stress (normal or tangential) resulting from a deformation differential (mechanical or thermal) and likely to be self-limiting due to the plastic behavior of the material.
Non Destructive Testing; Contrôle Non Destructif
Physical examination method for detecting a continuity solution in a material. The examination can be :
